Traveler reviews
10/10 food tour with Bob!
We absolutely loved our private food tour in Hanoi! We were a group of friends and my family with two small kids, and Bob was an absolute legend. He took us to so many local spots and dishes we never would have discovered on our own. It was the perfect way to experience more authentic Hanoi food and not just eat the typical dishes we have in Australia. My personal favourite was the Pho noodles and Chicken 🤤 bobs mums restaurant Bob made the whole experience really fun and easy, and all the staff at all the spots were accommodating to our group size (7 of us). Would highly recommend and would 100% do it again if we came back to Hanoi!
Amazing experience!!!
Bob is great. Me and my family had a very amazing experience with the city and the food is very authentic and delicious. Bob is very knowledgeable and patient and understanding with some of us are slow walkers and he let us walk in our own pace. We will definitely recommend Bob as your guide and will do this again hopefully soon.
True local food
Mai was my guide and she met me at my hotel and everything on the food tour was tailored to my level of adventurous food tasting. I wanted the true back street local food. Mai showed me a true mix of traditional local cuisine something I wasn't expecting but loved. Highly recommend
Perfect private Vietnamese Food Tour.
My wife and I had Viola and Bob as our Guides. They picked us up in the Old Quarter at our Hotel. We had great food and conversations with them! Both are super nice and we got along very good. They even adapted the tour to what we already ate so we only had new dishes and tastes. At the end we were full and happy that we chose the private Tour instead of a normal big one. Afterwards we got all the recommendations via Whatsapp for the future 👍🏽
Foodie adventure
Kenny was a great foodie tour guide. He knew all the best places to eat and found the perfect spots to enjoy the local dishes . My husband and now I love Bun Cha (among other dishes we tried). He was energetic, enthusiastic and really friendly and made it a memorable experience. He even got me to try fried sea worm omelet 🪱…… his knowledge of the local vibe and food culture makes this a 10/10 experience. We will be back to Hanoi and look forward to more food adventures.
